In this book, Margaret Magat explores both the traditional and popular culture contexts of eating balut. Balut-fertilized duck or chicken eggs that have developed into fully formed embryos with feathers and beaks-is a delicacy which elicits passionate responses. Hailed as an aphrodisiac in Filipino culture, balut is often seen and used as an object of revulsion in Western popular culture. Drawing on interviews, participant observation, reality television programs, travel shows, food blogs, and balut-eating contests, Magat examines balut production and consumption, its role in drinking rituals, sex, and also the vampire-like legends behind it. Balut reveals how traditional foods are used in the performance of identity and ethnicity, inspiring a virtual online cottage industry via social media. It also looks at the impact globalization and migration are having on cultural practices and food consumption across the world. The first academic book on balut, this is essential reading for anyone in food studies, folklore studies, anthropology, and Asian American studies.

This single-volume work covers many traditions, customs, and activities Westerners may find unusual or shocking, covering everything from the Ashanti people's funeral celebrations to wife-carrying competitions in Finland. In Maharashtra, India, a tradition exists to throw newborn babies off the tops of buildings. At the Vegetarian Festival in Phuket, Thailand, some people ritualistically pierce their cheeks and faces with swords and knives. How did these surprising customs come to be? From camel wrestling to cheese-rolling competitions to a tomato-throwing festival, this fascinating single-volume encyclopedia examines more than 100 customs, traditions, and rituals that may be considered strange and exotic to U.S. readers. This work provides high school and undergraduate students with a compelling and fascinating exploration of world customs and traditions. Comprising entries by anthropologists, religious leaders, scholars, dancers, musicians, historians, and artists from almost every continent in the world, this encyclopedia provides readers a truly global and multidisciplinary perspective. The entries explore the origins of the custom, explain how it was established as a tradition, and describe how and where it is practiced. A thematic guide enables readers to look up entries by the type of tradition or custom, such as birth, coming of age, courtship and wedding, funeral, daily customs, holidays, and festivals.

Manila is like halo-halo: everything Filipino mixed up in one big colorful bowl. It’s vibrant, overwhelming, overcrowded, and yes, a bit smelly. Many visitors skip Manila on their way to the beaches, or they never leave their Manila hotel room or favorite mall. With this guide book, you can have a blast in the real Manila, far beyond where tourists usually tread. Every recommendation has a QR code and Google Maps link, so it’s easy to navigate. I'll show you how to get local mobile data service, and I’ll make sure you don’t get scammed by taxis. A ride around Manila costs less than $5. In central Manila, Intramuros is the old walled city, previously open only to the Spanish colonialists. The’s a fort, a cathedral, and the remains of a moat. We’ll climb up to a rooftop view, find a hidden cafe that has amazing churros, and learn why the “dirty” ice cream isn’t so dirty. Yes, there’s a huge mall near Manila Bay, but did you know there’s a local seaside promenade there? There’s a rooftop cafe next to the beach, a classic rock bar, and a boat tour that costs $3. I’ve never seen any foreigners there. Nearby, on the water, there’s a seafood market where they’ll cook your purchases for you to eat right there. I’ve never seen any foreigners there either. BGC is Manila’s “global” development, and also the only place to get real Italian food in Manila. I’ll show you where. Besides the real Italian food, we’ll ride a fake Venetian gondola and check out a science museum. We’ll eat our way around the world’s oldest Chinatown and buy Filipino-Chinese pastries to take home. I’ll show you a hidden-away temple that’s upstairs in a building, a church with masses in Mandarin and Hokkien, and a street full of amazing Chinese foods that cost a dollar or two. Speaking of cheap food? I don’t recommend you eat on the street. But I’ll show you better alternatives to get your Filipino street food. And I have an entire chapter on balut — even the hot new balut trend, and where to find it. We’ll see indie rock shows, check out hipster art spaces, and eat Hokkaido toast, whatever that is. I list Manila hotels I personally recommend, and scams I personally warn you against. I’ve even got a bunch of warnings about bathrooms in the Philippines, and how to deal with bad customer service. And don’t be shy: if you want to meet and date Filipinas, yes, I cover that too. Experience the best of Manila, the local way. Mabuhay!

This thoroughly engaging encyclopedia considers the rich diversity of unfamiliar foods eaten around the world. The title They Eat That?: A Cultural Encyclopedia of Weird and Exotic Food from around the World says it all. This fun encyclopedia, organized A–Z, describes and offers cultural context for foodstuffs people eat today that might be described as "weird"—at least to the American palate. Entries also include American regional standards, such as scrapple and chitterlings, that other regions might find distasteful, as well as a few mainstream American foods, like honey, that are equally odd when one considers their derivation. A long narrative entry on insects, for example, discusses the fact that insects are enjoyed as a regular part of the diet in some Asian, South and Central American, and African countries. It then looks at the kinds of insects eaten, where and how they are eaten, cultural uses, nutrition, and preparation. Each of the encyclopedia's 100 entries includes a representative recipe or, for a food already prepared like maggoty cheese, describes how it is eaten. Each entry ends with suggested readings.
